More to Sarah Palin Than Meets the Eye
Pajamas Media ^ | August 20, 2008 | Rick Moran

Posted on 08/30/2008 11:56:45 AM PDT by AJKauf

She walked out onto the stage in Dayton, Ohio with a smile that could light up Toledo — and Youngstown, Canton, and Akron besides. Welcoming her to the national spotlight, a huge smile creased John McCain’s face as he gave her an affectionate peck on the cheek and looked at her as a father might see a daughter on her wedding day.

There's steel behind that beautiful smile that Democrats belittle at their peril.....

I love this. LOL!

The media love to be surprised. They love telling us they’re surprised. They love looking at each other on cable TV panels and telling each other they were surprised. Surprise is drama. Surprise is excitement. Surprise is the one thing the media never expected from John McCain, which — obviously — is why they were surprised in the first place.

She’s one hell of a woman!

I hope before the debates she gets coached on foreign policy - although I somehow doubt it will take the 300 coaches BO is reported to have.

Yeah... but Palin is the model in the ad that sold Olberbozo on them

I agree with Jon Stewart on The Daily Show that she has that Cinemax Librarian look, which is definitely not a bad thing.

Yeah, and besides, it cut them off from their praise of the messiah's acceptance speech in their tracks. Especially leaking it like they did during the morning shows.

I'm sure that when she's not out meeting and greeting, she is studying hard. One of the first lines in her speech yesterday was something like: “You (McCain and country) deserve the very best from me, and I promise to deliver nothing less.

I'm sure she will totally flabbergast Biden and the country in the debate. She is a very smart woman and WILL do it.

McCain’s campaign pulled off a stroke of genius yesterday. I don’t know how many saw the McCain ad that they showed on FOX news yesterday morning that had McCain congratulating Obama for his “historical” nomination and a successful convention, but it was absolutely awesome. I wish they would have showed it more often than they did. This was prior to McCain’s announcement on FOX. I thought that I detected a smirk from McCain in that ad.

Notice how McCain looks several years younger already, just standing next to her?

She already has had to deal with more than Joe sitting on committees. She deals with Russia - fishing rights, etc, and Canada - oil. She is the commander of the National Guard of Alaska, and visited them in Kuwait and Germany. Her son will be in Iraq in about two weeks.

She is not all hat and no cattle.

The dems are effed!

And they are furious! It's downright funny to watch them implode. I'm going to watch Obama's remarks about her "in his own words" in about 15 minutes (I could always use a laugh) on Commie News Network, followed by an interview with Palin. I may be stayng up past my bedtime, but this is so worth it.

Sarah has energized the conservative base like nobody has in a while. The McCain campaign has new life and it's on a roll now.

I am afraid the Republicans will fail to catalogue Biden’s pronouncements on foreign policy over the years compared to the actual outcomes. If they did so, Mrs. Palin could point out that by simply flipping a coin in the past, she would have been on the right side of history much more often than Biden.
